Unless they are going with a different lineup than the one I had to go by, the Clips might as well forfeit now. This lineup could easily be beaten by 40 plus points. It's that laughable and unfortunate.

I'm pretty sure that was Dunleavy tinkering with lineup to matchup with Nellie-ball, well at least I hope that was the case. Camby should be able to play a few more minutes than he did against the Warriors and Thornton should also be playing as well.

Msybe so. I wouldn't use this lineup against the Celts tonight. The Clips aren't consistant enough on offense to use the small ball lineup against the them.

We better just put forth a good effort win or lose.

I would like to see us just play well, I'm not really expecting a win. The Celtics are still killing their opponents even with out Garrnett. They just added Moore and are looking to add Marbury.

Glad to hear that Al is coming back and having Camby in the starting lineup will really improve our chances of winning. I remember we had trouble beating the Celtics even when they weren't very good.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I think Camby will get the start tonight-- I'd bet my tuition that Dunleavy went with that awkward line up against the Warriors in an attempt to match-up. With Camby, Randolph, Thornton, Gordon, and Davis...guess what guys? We have the projected starting lineup together! I'm excited to see what kind of effort they put out. I'm not expecting a win, but a loss under 10 points would be downright epic for us.

Go Clips!

Batten down the hatches.
Like numba2, I'm really just looking for effort and heart. Can't ask for much more than that in this situation.

I'll miss this game. I took some night classes again. I figured I may as well since this season has been pretty crappy. I hope Baron can continue playing well, even if we lose. Need some type of motivation for next year.

I didn't really catch the pre-game show, but Al is out and Collins got the start in his spot. Nice little look at the team introductions. Gordon got the biggest pop from Clipper Nation.

Camby is off to a hot start with 6 points on 3-3 shooting and a block in the first 3 minutes.

Collins is doing an admirable job on O & D so far.

Well, we're not getting our clocks cleaned by these guys yet --- that's a good start.
Hope EJ will get warmed up soon.

Fred Jones from downtown. 7 point lead with less than a minute left in the first.
